Pallet Tagging Lead

A retail client is looking for a Pallet Tagging Lead to periodically refresh the dashboard and interpret whether data from both depot taggers is populating correctly. Location: Lancaster, TX (Onsite). Position: Pallet Tagging Lead. Pay Rate: $28/hr on W2. Duration: July 6, 2026 – September 1, 2026 (possible extension). Hours: 50 hours per week (consistent overtime). Schedule Needs to be FLEXIBLE. Days: Monday–Friday. Shift 1: 6:30 AM – 5:00 PM. Shift 2: 5:30 PM – 4:00 AM (night shift). Position Summary The Pallet Tagging Lead serves as the on-site supervisor for a two-person tagging team. This role is split between hands‑on pallet-level tagging (covering 8 store destinations within the facility) and overseeing the real-time data flowing into the client’s dashboard from the two associate taggers. The Lead is the first line of response when data discrepancies arise — they troubleshoot, elevate to client’s support, and keep the operation running smoothly across the shift. A client-provided laptop is issued and configured by client’s IT team. Day-to-Day Responsibilities Tagging Duties Apply client’s pallet-level tags to pallets destined for store locations within DFW5. Track pallet assignments by dock door to ensure correct tagging by destination. Step in to assist with case-level tagging at the depots as needed based on volume. Dashboard Monitoring & Data Oversight Use a client-provided laptop to monitor the client’s inventory dashboard throughout the shift. Periodically refresh the dashboard and interpret whether data from both depot taggers is populating correctly. Identify data gaps, missing scans, or any discrepancies between physical tagging activity and dashboard data. Raise flags immediately if data is not updating as expected — this may indicate a scan error, connectivity issue, or procedural gap. Contact the client’s support line and document issues in the project communication channel (Teams/chat). Team Coordination Supervise and coordinate the two associate case taggers assigned to Depots. Conduct brief check-ins to confirm associates are following correct scanning procedure. Coach associates if scanning errors or incorrect tagging sequences are identified. Communicate shift updates, volume changes, or operational adjustments in a timely manner. Work Environment Split between warehouse floor (tagging) and a stationary laptop workstation (dashboard monitoring). Active distribution center with forklifts, conveyors, and dock activity in the immediate work area. Light lifting (under 20 lbs for individual cases); no forklift operation required. All hardware (laptop, scanner, client’s tags) provided by the client; onboarded by client’s IT before start. Required Qualifications Prior experience in a warehouse, distribution, or fulfillment center — must be comfortable in an active DC environment. Tech‑comfortable: ability to use a laptop, navigate a web dashboard, and interpret basic data (e.g., recognizing when records are missing or not updating). Microsoft Office proficiency — Excel used regularly on this project. Strong communication skills — must be able to document issues in writing and coordinate with remote support teams. Leadership or lead experience — this person oversees two associates and is accountable for shift output. High reliability and professional accountability — the Lead sets the tone for attendance and performance. Ability to stand for extended periods and maintain consistent output across a 10‑hour shift. Preferred Qualifications Experience with SAP, WMS, or any inventory tracking/management system — client’s platform operates similarly. Prior experience working in a Walmart DC, fulfillment, or vendor operation (e.g., Pepsi vendor experience, direct DSD, etc.). Experience as a team lead, warehouse supervisor, or shift coordinator. Flexibility to cover either shift is strongly preferred.
